How diverse is the Board?

[cdnmatt]

Oh yeah, very diverse.

We have some old gay white guys there, more old gay white guys over there, plus some other old white gay guys in that direction. Oh, there's a black guy over there. Then some more old gay white dudes, and oh look, a blind 37 year old there, and I think I see another black guy. Oh, and then some more old gay white guys.

Yep, very diverse if you ask me.
I think you may have accidentally chose the wrong word, but SGT is anything but "diverse".

No, I'm not racist or ageist so I don't focus on racial profiling or the presumed age of our members. It is diverse in its interests and its opinions and the number of people who contribute - yourself among them. Some posters claim it's a monoculture, where two or three people with the loudest voices bully everyone else and shut them up. This survey suggests otherwise and my choice of word was deliberate

Speaking of profiling, did you ever see Dame Edna's interview of KD Lang?

Still wrong, francois - Luke 23:3 in the versions using older English is "Thou sayest" not "Thou sayest it". I'm guessing you think it means "You said it". In modern English it is usually rendered as "You have said so" or is otherwise a reference to the truth of what Pilate is saying. It's in response to Pilate's question "Are you the King of the Jews?" and therefore is an attempt to avoid the question, not admit to it. However, keep up the good work - and I'm happy to be acknowledged as the Supreme Ruler of the Universe

I was quoting from the King James version of the Bible. I know what the term means.

Luke 23:3 King James Version (KJV)

3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.

Now, why would anyone posting on a forum, helping with questions and concerns, go to the "older English" versions to try and prove someone else to be wrong.... oh, yeah, I forgot.

And quite right too, francois. That's the language that is used in Heaven after all - none of this modern English folderol
